I will harden and secure your wordpress website


About this gig
Let me be straightforward with you. Most WordPress sites get hacked not because of some advanced attack, but because of basic things that were never set up properly. A default login page, an exposed XML-RPC file, wrong file permissions. These are the things attackers look for first, and most website owners have no idea they exist.
I am a cybersecurity student and I have spent a good amount of time learning how attackers think and what they target. I use that knowledge to lock down WordPress sites before anything goes wrong.
What I actually do when you hire me:
- Move your login page away from the default /wp-admin URL that every bot on the internet already knows
- Shut down XML-RPC which is one of the most abused entry points on WordPress
- Go through your file and folder permissions and fix anything that should not be publicly accessible
- Set up and properly configure a security plugin, not just install it and leave it on default settings
- Block suspicious IPs and limit login attempts so brute force attacks do not stand a chance
- Check your SSL setup and make sure HTTPS is working correctly across the whole site
- Run a malware scan and look for anything that should not be there
- Check if you

FAQ
Do I need to give you my WordPress admin password?
Yes, I will need temporary admin access to your WordPress dashboard to make the changes. Once the work is done I will confirm with you and you can change your password immediately after. Your credentials are never stored or shared.
Will any of this break my website?
No. Everything I do is non-destructive. I take a full note of existing settings before making any changes so if anything looks off it can be reversed quickly. I have not broken a site yet and I intend to keep it that way.
My site is already hacked or showing malware warnings. Can you help?
Yes but that falls under the Premium package which includes malware scanning and blacklist removal. Send me a message first so I can understand the situation before you place an order.
How will you access my website?
Through your WordPress admin panel. I do not need FTP or hosting panel access for the Basic and Standard packages. For Premium I may need hosting access depending on what needs to be done. I will let you know in advance.
What WordPress security plugin do you use?
I typically use Wordfence or Solid Security depending on your hosting setup. Both are industry standard and trusted by millions of WordPress sites worldwide.
Will my website go offline during the process?
No. Everything is done live without taking your site down. Most clients do not even notice the work happening.
What if I have questions after the work is done?
I provide three days of post-delivery support. If something looks off or you have questions about the report just message me and I will sort it out.
Is this a one-time fix or do I need ongoing maintenance?
This is a one-time hardening service. After the work is done your site will be significantly more secure. I will also give you a short list of things to keep an eye on going forward so you are not left in the dark.
